I'm formerly the editor in charge of Military In Scale magazine and latterly, Model Airplane International. Editing duties to one side, I'm now a full-time modelmaker with Doolittle Media, working to supply modelling articles and material for a number of their group titles, including MAI and Tamiya Model Magazine International. I'm also an avid fan of Assassin's creed, Coventry City FC and when the mood takes me, a drummer of only passing skill. Here though, you'll find what I do best: build models and occassionally, write about them!

Editorial Comment Thought for the day...

YES, BUT WHAT ABOUT THE BEGINNERS?

As authors, are we running the risk of alienating those that aren’t as confident or technically proficient, when we let our own ego and drive, dictate our approach to each build?
